5th year option deadline for Olave/Penning is May 1st

Olave medical problems are deeper than Derek Carr...
He has played more games with Carr that any other QB since his first reported head injury in 2020.
His family using Carr as an escape-goat is nothing more than a distraction.

I do agree with trading him.

You are correct. His family blaming Carr is a distraction for the real issue. They/he is using deflection and distraction to hide the real issue and the real issue is blatantly obvious, but nobody wants to admit it.

His head will not allow him to have a long career. At some point whether it's this year or in the future, concussions will more than likely end his career. He can retire and hope for no long-term issues like some players have done by retiring early, or he can play on and be forced into retirement or worse. It's not a good situation at all.
